They will only fit with the Cooper S 7.5" brakes I believe.

Yea, I don't even think the 7.5" alloy calipers will fit under them, but I *may* be wrong on that.

My KAD ones don't hit the tie bars - they're running on 7.9" discs. I'm sure that the other companies producing 4 pots would make sure they don't foul suspension components too. Most 4 pots need a wheel with a lot of space inside to fit - best bet to find out what wheels will fit over the 4 pots is to call the company concerned and ask. As it's Minispares ones you are asking about, you could try sending a PM to Simon@Minispares on here.
